On October 8, a realty company removed the commuters’ shelter at Varadharajapuram Bus Stop on Kamarajar Road in Singanallur.
It removed the shelter based on an order Coimbatore Corporation Executive Engineer, Planning (Town Planning Officer) R. Sasipriya had passed a day earlier. Her order said that based on application from the realtor, she was permitting the company to shift the shelter at its cost.
The company had sought permission for shifting the shelter a few yards away.
